    Its Ok for Hopkins to hoodwink fans but not a Brit.
    At least Joe fights men his own size.
    Everybody fights bums , but hasnt Bhop fought 4 or 5 HOF and just schooled one at the age of 45 ,, JC cant hold his jockstrap in terms of achievements , Although Bhop is just to old know and should hang them up , if JC wants to go to 175 look at a real in prime champ like Dawson maybe , if he can beat Kessler .

    Roy Jones jnr at 168 would have made Joe look like a novice , its ok for Joe to go on about Lacy as his best win , Lacy is a bum compared to , Trinidad , ODH , Roy jnr , Wright etc ,,, makes me laugh as Joe hasnt fought any one really and is just like the protected Ottke .

      You're not a real boxing fan if you didn't know who he was before the lacy fight. Calzaghe has some big names on his resume. Chris Eubank, Robin Reid, David Starie, Omar Sheika, Richie Woodhall, Mario Veit, Byron Mitchell, Evans Ashira, Jeff Lacy, and Sakio Bika. You don't know crap about it. You are just a hater. And he fought most of those fighters in their prime with the exception of Eubank but to be honest calzaghe was a young lad when he fought eubank. If the only names you know are hopkins and jones jr, then thats sad.

        Hopkins would give Cal his first loss. Hopkins is someone that just knows how to win. He doesn't care what he has to do to get the W but he does what needs to be done. He is a WINNER.

          I am a Calzaghe fan, I know that the moment he choses to fight in the U.S. I am buying a ticket to whomever he fights. However, you can't truthfully tell me Cal has a resume that can compete with Hopkins.

            Calzaghe has avoided froch for years. he could have fought Froch instead of Bika, Manfredo or Ashira but he took the easy option.
            Its a known fact frank warren is desperate to sign froch, so now froch becomes mandatory for winner of Calzaghe Kessler. Calzaghe moves up a weight?
            Warren will go no where near Froch unless he gets a 5 fight option.
            Scared is Joe

                Have you noticed Froch actually slides DOWN in "the ring" rankings...

                  The move-up in weight MAY be a factor for Calz, also the fact that Hop won't have to cut anywhere down from 175 will be good, I think the 5 pounds for the Wright fight might have had an affect, although not very big.

                  Hopkins is a very elusive fighter, and I think he'll come up with the strategy to beat Calz.

                    You clowns that think you know something about boxing are pathetic. You morons speak as if Caldoggy is going to have an easy time or is guaranteed victory against Kessler.

                    Well I hate to crash this gay party that you guys are having but DON'T look for Caldoggy to remain undefeated. Kessler may not have as much experience but he is the younger, fresher, faster, stronger and smarter fighter and he will prove that very shortly. This is one fight that Caldoggy is not going to slap himself to victory. The 10 year reign of Caldoggy comes to an end November 3rd...

                      He is clearly terrified of Kelley Pavlik.
